Recycling in Frederiksted: A Local Guide
Frederiksted, on the west end of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, is home to RePlastic Recycle — a locally founded environmental company that collects, sorts, and manufactures recycled plastic entirely on St. Croix, diverting waste from the island's landfill.
Founded in 2022 and headquartered in Frederiksted, RePlastic operates the Plastic Intelligence Platform™, an AI-driven sorting system that identifies each piece of plastic by resin type. In partnership with the Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority (VIWMA), RePlastic launched a public plastic drop-off station on April 27, 2026, located inside the Peter's Rest Convenience Center at 71 Queen Mary Hwy in Christiansted. The drop-off accepts clean plastics labeled #1 (PET), #2 (HDPE), and #5 (PP) — common containers such as water bottles, shampoo bottles, milk jugs, and medicine bottles — Monday through Saturday, 9 AM to 4 PM. Trained attendants are on-site and will sort materials for you; no fee has been reported for the drop-off.
Collected plastics are processed at RePlastic's Frederiksted facility into construction materials including interlocking blocks, plastic lumber, pavers, and roofing tiles — supporting local manufacturing jobs and keeping the material loop entirely within the island. Plastics #3, #4, #6, and #7 are not accepted at the drop-off station, and no other material types (glass, metal, paper, electronics) are confirmed at this location.
